Clean, great location.

Easy check-in, I love the door code rather than a key card. They room was clean and had refrigerator/freezer, microwave, coffee maker and toaster. I was a solo traveler, so the room was fine for me, but it is quite small. So if you're a couple, just be prepared with a tight space in the standard room. Just a 5 minute walk to Heavenly and the Casinos, would recommend!

Good location but bed condition was poor.

Very convenient contact-less checkin. Great location with many restaurants nearby. The bed at room 11 was in poor condition and feels like it's going to fall apart anytime even though only one person sleeps on it (I'm 80kg).
